NAME

SYNOPSIS

/etc/ldap/slapd.conf

DESCRIPTION

This overlay implements the LDAP Server Side Sorting (RFC2891) control
as well as the Virtual List View control. It also replaces the default
implementation of the LDAP PagedResults (RFC2696) control, to ensure
that it works with Sorting. The overlay can be used with any backend or
globally for all backends.
Since a complete result set must be generated in memory before sorting
can be performed, processing sort requests can have a large impact on
the server's memory use. As such, any connection is limited to having
only one sort request active at a time. Additional limits may be
configured as described below.

CONFIGURATION

These slapd.conf options apply to the SSSVLV overlay. They should
appear after the overlay directive.
sssvlv-max<num>
Set the maximum number of concurrent sort requests allowed
across all connections. The default is one half of the number of
server threads.
sssvlv-maxkeys<num>
Set the maximum number of keys allowed in a sort request. The
default is 5.
